LWML NEWS

At our April LWML meeting, several items were discussed.  The strawberry muffin mixes have been made and given to Pastor.  These mixes are presented to people whom Pastor visits.

Plans are being formulated concerning our upcoming Fall Rally.  We sampled two desserts, a blueberry/pineapple "dump" cake made by Carol Perkins and an apple crisp made by Carol Throckmorton.  Both are delicious.  We unanimously voted to include both desserts in our Fall Rally dinner.

Casserole dishes will comprise the main course.  LWML is prewently seeking volunteers from our congregation to help us make casseroles for a potluck dinner, hopefully, in June.  We would then decide which of these casseroles we would serve at our Fall Rally.  There will be further discussion at our May Meeting concerning this potluck dinner.

Banner samples were passed around, and the color purple was chosen.  Samples of various colored yarn were shown for members to choose for making small embroidered crosses.  Light purple was chosen for the center to be outlined by dark purple.

Our May meeting will also include discussing plans for our June outing and for a Saturday trip to Deidre's House.  Paul Anderson will be presenting our May program.  He will be speaking to us about the Eric Douglas Dettenrieder Memorial Fund. (www.EDDfund.org) which was established in memory of his friend who died in a skiing accident.  The organization is dedicated to helping people with sports injuries.

As you can see, there are a lot of things going on with Good Shepherd LWML.  Every lady in the church is welcome to attend LWML meetings and participation and help is always welcome.
